United Nations Environmental Program Fashion Industry Target Consultation (FITC)

Description

Formally launched at COP27 in November 2022, the Fashion Industry Target Consultation (FITC) is led by the Global Fashion Agenda (GFA) and the UN Environment Programme (UNEP) and aims to identify and converge existing industry aligned targets (and formulate new targets where they are currently missing) according to the five priorities of the Fashion CEO Agenda: Respectful & Secure Work Environments, Better Wage Systems, Resource Stewardship, Smart Material Choices, and Circular Systems. The consultation will help understand regional impacts in formulating these targets, and ensuring there are no tradeoffs, while also ensuring environmental and social protections in the transition to a net-positive fashion industry. UNEP’s upcoming report, Sustainability and Circularity in the Textile Value Chain: A global roadmap, sets out the priorities and actions all key stakeholders can take towards this transformation, based on UNEP’s existing work in this area.
